Access to Perivale Wood Local Nature Reserve

There are regular field meetings for members, at which
non-members are welcome.
There is a field meeting for adults on the first Saturday of each month, and
for Junior members on the third Saturday of each month. See the diary for details.

The Reserve is open to the public once a year, on the
last Sunday in April at a time when the bluebells are at their most beautiful.

Arrangements can be made for groups from schools, colleges,
etc to visit the Reserve as a part of their biology and ecology studies. It
is normally possible to arrange for school parties to be given a guided tour
of the Reserve, and nature trail leaflets and workbooks for school children
are available. A number of University and College students have used the Reserve
for ecological research projects.

The entrance to the reserve is from Sunley Gardens in
Perivale (UB6 7PF) - a short walk northwards from Perivale London Underground (Central
Line) station.

The nearest bus stop is for the 297, and the E5 and 95 both stop
on Teignmouth Gardens, a short walk away. The area around Sunley Gardens is
a controlled parking zone on weekdays from 9am to 10am and from 2pm to 3pm.

Members can borrow a key from Perivale Library in Horsenden Lane South (UB6 7NT) or the Café Rendezvous next to the Library. You will be asked to leave your membership card as a deposit. Please return your key promptly when leaving the Reserve, so that other members are not inconvenienced.

Security of the Reserve is very important. Please make sure that you lock the gate behind you while you are in the Reserve, and make sure it is locked when you leave. Do not leave the gate unlocked and unattended at any time.

Both the Library and Café Rendezvous are closed on Sundays, and are unlikely to be open on Bank Holiday weekends. Normal opening times are as follows:
